Now that President Obama has boldly stood tall in the saddle, drew a line in the waves, and thrust our erect national phallus skyward, in a way that the former regime was afraid to, because of various effeminate and latent homosexual tendencies, the French, Dutch, and Canadians have all retaken control of various vessels attacked by these Somali Pirates.

Parody Alert, you morons: Obama made the right moves. Other nations in the region are now "suddenly" having some success, although I doubt under the previous regime we were terribly concerned with covering "their" pirate problem. Perhaps "Old Europe" were having some successes previously.

But you know as well as I do this would be the right wing narrative were Obama a Republican.

Now, the interesting part of the narrative from a rightist point of view, is that America has been trained for decades to respond to such events per the first paragraph's description.

The really, really interesting part is how well Republicans themselves tarnished this form of public mythology with the last 8 years of wrongheaded and blundering cowboy policy.

UCs indeed. Eh well -- Obama didn't do what a Republican would do, crowing about his success for weeks on end. He just told the Navy to do what it needed to do and left it at that.

Lots of Pirates left though, so he didn't show up in front of a banner shouting "Mission Accomplished."

There's something you can vent your spleen on. But wait, who do you hate worse? After all, your leader has declared pirates to just be "maritime organizers." Wonder how long he takes to call them something else when it turns out that NATO ships turn them loose instead of shooting them. But hold on... maybe he'll point to that example as how pirates should be treated.

Off-putting infantile paralysis and obsessive-compulsive sexual narcissism aside, I do agree in part with OP!!! But, no need to be so defensive!! Chill, Bill.

Obama has done the right thing by making a bold statement that Israel should not be singled out for any "racist" accusations. Yet as some others on this list have alluded, he might have had even greater impact were he to attend and stand up to offer a more accurate and helpful perspective, one that did not focus on "Israel" as the source of evil in the world.

I don't know if Obama would have been able to make a public statement at this conference, but he certainly could have done a press conference during or after this event to make it known that the U.S. will never abandon Israel, Korea, or any other friends. Such a presser would have undoubtedly been carried world-wide and had the same effect of him speaking at the event.

Anyway, good to see his sentiment has stimulated some boldness, courage, and guts in other nations. Kudos to all.

The UN should be thrown out of NYC, build them a place in Somalia or North Korea, most of them are nothing but Anti American Crooks.

The UN Sucks.

GOD DAMN AMERICA (obama's preacher of twenty years said that)

IF GEORGE BUSH BOYCOTTED A UN MEETING ON RACISM SHARPTON, JACKOFF AND ALL THEIR FOLLOWERS WOULD BE HOLDING "TEA PARTYS ALL ACROSS AMERICA" SIGNS WOULD READ "BUSH IS RACIST" CHRIS MATTHEWS WOULD SET HIMSELF ON FIRE.

I'm beginning to wonder if there's anything that could happen in this fantasy world of yours that doesn't result in Chris Mathews setting himself on fire.

He fascinates me, I have never seen anybody in the news media slobber and gush over a celebrity or a politician the way he does, I watched his show last week for about fifteen minutes during that time he was drooling and he must of said the word "Obama" ten thousand times, I couldn't see his legs but they must have been shaking and quivering, of course I'm a little biased though...........:singing:

All he's done is incite a new generation of pirates and help pirate recruiting.

I would guess its the same notion that liberals used when bush was ramping up his fight against al quaeda

I don't believe the notion of this in either case.........

but the fact is that the french dealt with pirates before the US did.........so if anything, the US is following the french

To quote PFIV Parody Alert, you morons:.

And MY beloved George? I voted for Kerry for the first time in my life just to try to get that guy out.
